What you'll be working on
Audinate is building a new generation of products for installed AV, spanning on-site appliances and the cloud services that work with them. A new engineering group is behind it, and the first products are in development.
Installed AV means many vendors, many protocols. Our products control third-party gear, sit inside other control systems, and have to be open enough that others can build on ours. Getting the integration model right is a big part of the architecture.
We're looking for a senior engineer who can turn a roadmap into good engineering decisions. The architecture spans on-prem appliances and cloud services, and most of it is still to be made. You'll work with product managers and the tech leads on each team, often on the questions that are unclear or don't have an owner yet. The group is 20+ engineers across several teams.
You will
-
Lead the decisions that span appliance and cloud. What runs where, how state stays consistent, how third-party integrations run safely inside the product
-
Take a position on the calls that cut across teams, like build vs buy and the trade-offs with no clean answer
-
Work with product managers to get from goals to buildable systems, and surface the constraints that should shape the roadmap
-
Find and reduce the technical risk no single team owns
-
Improve test strategy, automation and development process
-
Prove out AI-assisted engineering workflows and roll out the ones that work
What we're looking for
-
You've designed and shipped systems where edge devices and cloud services work together reliably
-
Strong distributed systems fundamentals: networking, protocol design, reliability, observability
-
At home in the messiness of real-world integration: protocols, APIs, third-party systems
-
You're hands-on, proving designs in code rather than diagrams
-
You pick tools to fit the problem and get productive in unfamiliar ones quickly. Today that means C++, Rust, TypeScript, GraphQL, MongoDB, Redis and AWS
-
You get real value from AI-assisted development because you've built the guardrails, workflows or tooling to deal with its limits
-
You've shaped architecture and engineering culture through credibility, not headcount, and you can make a vague mandate concrete
-
Professional AV or audio networking background is a plus, not a requirement
